'Oh look at these two': Coldplay’s Chris Martin accidentally catches tech CEO cheating on 'cam'

What began as a fun moment on the "kiss cam" at a Coldplay concert quickly turned into a viral controversy after frontman Chris Martin appeared to accidentally expose tech CEO Andy Byron in an alleged affair, in front of thousands of fans.

The incident occurred during Coldplay’s concert at Gillette Stadium in Boston on Wednesday night. As the camera panned across the crowd, it landed on Byron, CEO of billion-dollar software firm Astronomer, locked in a cosy embrace with Kristin Cabot, the company’s Chief People Officer.

The two, seemingly unaware they were being broadcast on the venue’s massive screens, were caught cuddling before frontman Chris Martin playfully commented:

"Oh look at these two..."

But what happened next only fueled speculation. As soon as the pair realised they were on the big screen, Byron abruptly let go of Cabot and ducked behind a barrier. Cabot, visibly shocked, turned away and covered her face with her hands as laughter erupted from the crowd.

Martin, caught off guard, added: "Oh what… either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy."

That offhand remark, paired with the couple's reaction, sent social media into overdrive. Footage from the concert has since gone viral across platforms like X and TikTok, with users speculating about Byron’s marital status and accusing him of infidelity. Many expressed sympathy for his wife, though neither Byron nor Cabot has publicly responded. Byron has led ‘Astronomer’ since July 2023.
